Communications
 Communications at Barrie is the primary medium of interaction between the school and parents, faculty/staff and students, alumni, members of the news media, and other members of the Barrie community. This department manages all aspects of internal and external communications for The Barrie School and has responsibilities including:
- Oversight of all publications including newsletters, invitations, and press releases;
- Marketing strategy;
- Monitoring and updating the school’s website, www.barrie.org.
The Barrie website is continually being improved in order to better suit the needs of the parents, students, and faculty. Currently, it provides access to homework assignments, students’ projects, school calendar, emergency services, and additional communications between faculty and parents. The website also functions as an important marketing tool for the Admissions Department, providing a window into Barrie for many prospective families. During the school year, the Communications Department is responsible for publishing:
- The Nautilus News, a bi-weekly e-newsletter, providing a forum for all Barrie voices and keeping track of all community news, and
- The Annual Fund Report, which details Barrie’s financial status and fundraising information.
The Communications Department is also responsible for assigning passwords to provide access to BarrieNET, used exclusively by the Barrie community. Parents, faculty and staff, students, alumni, grandparents, and special friends are all eligible BarrieNET users. In order to receive a username and password, please send an e-mail to the Director of Communications; include your name, address, business and home telephone numbers, e-mail address, and your relationship to Barrie.If you have any questions, please contact Vicky Temple, Director of Communications at 301.576.2845.
